|
|
Florence
|
|
This is the one situation I wanted most to avoid
Nothing I say will convince him it isn't a trick
|
|
|
|
|
Anatoly
|
|
A drink on a clear moonlit night - I relax, she smiles
There's something unpleasant going on
|
|
|
Florence
|
|
So with immaculate timing, I'm left to carry the can
Embarrassed, outnumbered, marooned -
|
|
|
|
|
Anatoly
|
|
Now she can't be working for them - I mean us -
She seems so very straight forward - but where is he?
|
|
|
Florence
|
|
He has to come back - he wanted this meeting, well didn't he?
|
|
|
|
|
Anatoly
|
|
Maybe he's scared - just as scared as the was in the game
|
|
|
Florence
|
|
Oh I just couldn't care less
He can go right ahead, go and wreck his career, I know I've done my best
|
|
|
|
|
Anatoly
|
|
Well at least she's a good-looking spy
|
|
|
Florence
|
|
What if my Russian friend thinks that my plans
Are more of an intimate kind?
If I don't say something else soon
He'll go – Nobody’s on nobody's side!
|
|
|
|
|
Anatoly
|
|
Listen. I hate to break up the mood
Get to the point, begin the beguine
Haven't you noticed we're a protagonist short
In this idyllic, well-produced scene?
|
|
|
Florence
|
|
All I can say is moments ago
He was right here ready and waiting
|
|
|
|
|
Anatoly
|
|
Never mind him - I haven't missed him so far
|
|
|
Florence
|
Anatoly
|
Maybe it won't do any harm
To struggle on without his charm
|
Maybe it won't do any harm
To struggle on without his charm
|
|
|
Funny how all at once I feel that he can go jump off the mountain I won't care

|
My dear opponent - I really can't imagine why
|
|
|
Florence
|
|
So I'm not dangerous then? - what a shame!
|
|
|
|
|
Anatoly
|
|
Oh you're not dangerous - who could think that of you?
|
|
|
Florence
|
Anatoly
|
You - you are so strange - why can't you be
What you ought to be?
You should be scheming, intriguing,
Too clever by half -
|
You - you are so strange - why can't you be
What you ought to be ?
You should be scheming, intriguing,
Too clever by half -

I have to hand it to you
For you managed to make me forget why I ever
agreed to this farce
|
|

Florence
|
Anatoly
|
I don't know why I can't think of anything
I would rather do
Than be wasting my time
On mountains with you
|
I don't know why I can't think of anything
I would rather do
Than be wasting my time
On mountains with you
